Subject: [Harp-L] Out of the box vs customising



The list has had several threads dealing with customising harps. All of you pros know the works: Replacing or filing reeds, tightening the flow of air, replacing metal materials etc.

My question as an amateur is how much better can the tone, volume and control get after a redo. I have been happy with out of the box, eg Marine Bands.

Don't know for sure but I believe a good part of classic harp has been performed with instruments out of the box (if even that).
